Album Notes & Community Reviews

As a foundational document of the French touch movement, the Parisian DJ constructs a highly chic, sample-heavy homage to mid-century cinema and lounge music. 'Sacrebleu' elegantly intertwines bossa nova rhythms, jazz loops, and subtle house beats, pioneering a distinctively suave downtempo aesthetic.
